1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundAntrodia cinnamomea and its host Cinnamomum kanehirae are both endemic species unique to Taiwan. Many studies have confirmed that A. cinnamomea is rich in polysaccharides and triterpenoids that may carry medicinal effects in anti-cancer, anti-inflammation, anti-hypertension, and anti-oxidation. Therefore it is of interest to study the chemical variation of regular orange-red strains and white strains, which included naturally occurring and blue-light induced white A. cinnamomea.

resultsThe chemical profiles of A. cinnamomea extracts at different growth stages were compared using thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The TLC and HPLC profiles indicated that specific triterpenoids varied between white and regular strains. Moreover, the compounds of blue-light induced white strain were similar to those of naturally occurring white strain but retained specific chemical characteristics in more polar region of the HPLC chromatogram of regular strain.

conclusionsBlue-light radiation could change color of the regular A. cinnamomea from orange-red to white by changing its secondary metabolism and growth condition. Naturally occurring white strain did not show a significantly different composition of triterpenoid profiles up to eight weeks old when compared with the triterpenoid profiles of the regular strain at the same age. The ergostane-type triterpenoids were found existing in both young mycelia and old mycelia with fruiting body in artificial agar-plate medium culture, suggesting a more diversified biosynthetic pathway in artificial agar-plate culture rather than wild or submerged culture.
